Summary A polygalacturonase from culture filtrates of a strain ofRhizopus stolonifer was purified about 80 fold by ethanol precipitation, followed by ion exchange chromatography (CM-Sepharose 6B) and gel filtration (Sephadex G-100). The purified preparation was homogeneous when examined by PAGE. The enzyme is an endopolygalacturonase with an optimum catalytic activity at pH 5.0 and 45°C, and a molecular weight of 57,000±500 daltons. The activity was stimulated by Fe+++, Mg++, Co++, and inhibited by Mn++ and Zn++. The enzyme was stable in the pH range of 3.0 to 5.0. The purified enzyme was specific for nonmethoxylate polygalacturonic acid, with Km and Vmax values respectively of 0.19 mg/ml and 1.3 mol/g/min. In addition, this enzymatic preparation degraded pectic substances in organge peel.  相似文献

Spermine, spermidine and putrescine produce dose dependent stimulation of the invitro tubulinyl-tyrosine carboxypeptidase. Maximal stimulation was obtained with spermine, spermidine or putrescine at 0.06 mM, 1 mM and 6 mM, respectively. At higher concentrations, the enzyme activity was inhibited. The enzyme was also activated by Mg++; the concentration formaximal effect was 4–6 mM. The stimulation produced by optimal concentration of each amine was unaffected by Mg++ up to 2 mM; higher concentration of Mg++ showed inhibitory effect. At optimal Mg++ concentration, the carboxypeptidase activity was inhibited by increasing amine concentration. The amines at 0.5 or 5 mM did not produce any effect on the incorporation of tyrosine catalyzed by tubulin tyrosine ligase.  相似文献

Summary The properties of glucose isomerase in native, heat-treated and immobilized cells of Streptomyces kanamyceticus after heat and mineral treatment have been compared. The optimum pH for glucose isomerase in native cells was shifted from 8.2 to 8.6 by heat treatment and immobilization. There is no change in the optimum temperature (90°C) for activity of the enzyme by the above treatment. Heat-treated cells and immobilized cells show greater pH and thermal stability of the enzyme. The Km values of the enzyme of native cells, heat-treated cells and immobilized heat-mineral-treated cells are 208 mM, 212 mM and 166 mM respectively; Mg++ and Co++ enhance the activity of isomerase in all cases.  相似文献

A moderately psychrophilic bacterium Corynebacterium paurometabolum MTCC 6841 (gram positive, short rod type) producing extracellular alkaline lipase was isolated from Lake Naukuchiatal, Uttaranchal, India. The bacterium was able to grow within a broad range of pH (5–10). Soyabean oil and olive oil served as the best carbon sources for lipase production. The bacterium preferred inorganic nitrogenous compounds, NaNO3 and KNO3, over organic nitrogenous compound for its growth. Maximum lipase production occurred at 25°C and 8.5 pH. The enzyme activity was found to be maximum at the same values of temperature and pH. The enzyme was reasonably stable in the presence of various organic solvents. No significant effect of Ca+, Cu++, Fe++, Na+, K+, Mg++, Mn+, NH4+, Co++ ions over enzyme activity was detected. Treatment with EDTA reduced the activity to nearly one half.  相似文献

The properties of yeast 5′-nucleotidase, one of NAD-metabolic system in yeast, were studied.

1) The enzyme has optimum pH at 5.8~6.1 for its activity and is most stable at pH 6. It is inactivated completely at 55°C for 6 min, pH 7, but never at 40°C for 6 min. 2) The enzyme hydrolyzes only 5′-nucleotides of guanine, adenine, hypoxanthine, uracil and cytosine, but never splits nicotinamide mononucleotide, thiamine monophosphate, ribose 5-monophosphate and flavin mononucleotide. 3) The enzyme seems to have specially high affinity for 5′-AMP. 4) The enzyme activity is accelerated by addition of Co++ and Ni++, but inhibited by Ag+, Cu++, EDTA, I2 and N-bromosuccimide. Mg++, KCN, NaF and thiol reagents except p-chloromercuribenzoate have no effects. 5) Nucleosides have inhibitory effects, among which adenosine is most effective inhibitor. 6) The activity is reduced up to 30% by dialysis against 1 mm EDTA solution, and the reduced activity is completely reactivated by addition of Co++ or Ni++, but not by Mn++ or Mg++.  相似文献

An enzyme, which catalyzes the isomerization of d-glucose to d-fructose, has been found in a newly isolated bacterium which tentatively identified as Pacacolobacterum aerogenoides. The enzyme converts not only d-glucose but also d-mannose to d-fructose, and NAD and Mg++ are required as cofactor for this isomerization. The properties of this enzyme were summarized as follows: (1) As a cofactor for the isomerization by this enzyme, NAD was absolutely necessary, whereas NADP, FMN and FAD were not. (2) The optimum pH was found to be at 7.5 and optinum temperature was at about 40°C. (3) The enzyme activity was markedly reduced by EDTA treatment and the reduced activity by EDTA was restored by the addition of Mg++, Mn++ or Co++. (4) The enzyme activity was strongly inhibited by monoiodoacetate, p-chloromercuribenzoate, and Cu++, however, the activity was recovered by adding cysteine or glutathione.  相似文献

Summary The aim of these investigations was to study the conditions for the production of extracellular lipases fromPenicillium roqueforti S-86, which was isolated from a commercial sample of roqueforti chese type. As carbon sources there have been used the following compounds: 2% glucose, fructose and sucrosel 1% and 2% butterfat and 2% olive oil. Maximal amount of lipases was produced after six days of incubation grown in the medium with 2% of glucose, initial pH of medium 4.0 at 27°C. Cells ofPenicillium roqueforti grown in the presence of bacto-peptone instead of (NH4)2SO4, as nitrogen source, synthesized maximum quantity of lipases after four days of incubation.The effect of temperature, pH, as well as mono, be and three valent cations: Na+, K+, Ca++, Mn++, Mg++ and Fe+++ on lipase activity was followed.  相似文献

A strain of Rhizopus stolonifer produced a high activity of extracellular DNAase when grown on YPG (yeast extract peptone glucose) medium. The source of peptone had a marked effect on the enzyme yield and only one peptone (i.e. from Sarabhai M. Chemicals Ltd, India) supported enzyme production. Maximum enzyme activity (88 U/ml) was obtained after 4 days' growth under submerged conditions in YPG medium containing 100 M Mn2+, Co2+ or Mg2+, and glucose as the sole carbon source. The unpurified enzyme was optimally active at pH 7.5 and 45°C. It had a higher activity with sonicated and heat-denatured DNA than native DNA.  相似文献

Summary Present studies indicate that all the three species ofAlternaria possessed both intra- and extracellular PME activity but only the latter was significant. The role of the enzyme in pathogenicity of the strains has been discussed. The various optima determined for the extracellular enzyme activity were pH 4.5–7.0, temperature 50° C, time 24 hrs, and substrate concentration 1% pectin; the activity was proportional to enzyme concentration. Of the chemicals used to characterise the properties of the enzyme Na2HPO4, NaH2PO4, Mg++, Ca++ produced marked activation.  相似文献

Ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase-oxygenase is deactivated by removal of Mg++. The enzyme activities can be restored to a different extent by the addition of various divalent ions in the presence of CO2. Incubation with Mg++ and CO2 restores both enzyme activities, whereas, the treatment of the enzyme with the transition metal ions (Mn++, Co++, and Ni++) and CO2 fully reactivates the oxygenase: however, the carboxylase activity remains low. In experiments where CO2-free conditions were conscientiously maintained, no reactivation of RuBP oxygenase was observed, although Mn++ ions were present. Other divalent cations such as Ca++ and Zn++, restore neither the carboxylase nor the oxygenase reaction. Furthermore, the addition of Mn++ to the Mg++ and CO2 preactivated enzyme significantly inhibited carboxylase reactions, but increased the oxygenase reaction.Abbreviation RuBP ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate. The enyme unit for RuBP carboxylase is defined as mol CO2 fixed·min-1 and for the RuBP oxygenase as mol O2 consumed · min-1  相似文献

Summary Insulin decreased markedly the adenylyl cyclase activity associated with fat cell membranes purified by centrifugation in sucrose gradients. The hormone effect was not readily evident in crude membrane preparations.The kinetics of this effect indicate that some time was required for the onset of the insulin-induced inactivation. This lag period decreased when the insulin concentration was increased. The hormone dose dependence for adenylyl cyclase inactivation measured at a fixed time (3 min) showed a 10 to 15% decrease in activity at 1 to 30 U per ml insulin; 30 to 40% at 100 to 1000 U per ml; and 75% at 0.1 U per ml.The insulin effect was completely abolished by 0.1mm GMP-P(NH)P, 10mm fluoride, or 50 ng per ml glucagon, or by increasing the Mn++ concentration to 4mm. In addition, it was partially reversed by the addition of a fraction from the sucrose gradient, which contained soluble factors.The kinetics of the adenylyl cyclase-catalyzed reaction were studied using ATP or AMP-P(NH)P as adenylyl donor, and Mn++ or Mg++ as divalent cation, in the absence or presence of insulin. With ATP and Mg++ there was a striking reduction of the transient reaction rates after 1.5 min of incubation. Under these conditions the insulin effect was not evident. On the contrary, with ATP and Mn++ this spontaneous reduction of activity was less evident; however, in the presence of insulin there was a clear and marked reduction of the transient reaction rate measured after 1.5 min of incubation. With AMP-P(NH)P the kinetic data were qualitatively similar to those observed with ATP.It is concluded that under certain assay conditions adenylyl cyclase may be converted to an inactive enzyme form, and that such a conversion is more evident in the presence of Mg++ than with Mn++. In the latter case, insulin appears to enhance the rate of this conversion.  相似文献

Summary As different structural states of the (Na+–K+)-ATPase (EC 3.6.1.3) may lead to a changed reactivity to antibodies, the influence of Na+, K+, Mg++, Pi and ATP on the reaction between highly purified (Na+–K+)-ATPase and antibodies directed against the membrane-bound enzyme was measured. The antigen antibody reaction was registered by measuring the antibody inhibition of (Na+–K+)-ATPase activity.In themembrane-bound but not in thesolubilized enzyme four different degrees of antibody inhibition were obtained at equilibrium of the antigen antibody reaction if different combinations of Na+, K+, Mg++ and ATP were present during the incubation with the antibodies. Corresponding to the different degrees of inhibition, different rates of enzyme inhibition were measured. (a) The smallest degree of enzyme inhibition was obtained when (i) only Mg++, (ii) Mg++ and Na+ or (iii) Mg++ and K+ were present during the antigen antibody reaction. (b) The enzyme activity was inhibited more strongly if Na+, Mg++ and ATP were present together. (c) It was inhibited even more if only (i) Na+, (ii) K+, (iii) ATP or both (iv) ATP and Na+, (v) ATP and K+, (vi) ATP and Mg++, or if (vii) no ATP and activating ions were present. (d) The highest degree of antibody inhibition was obtained if Mg++, ATP and K+ were present together.In the presence of Mg++ plus ADP and in the presence of Mg++ plus the ATP analog adenylyl (--methylene) diphosphonate, Na+ and K+ did not influence the degree of antibody inhibition as they did in the presence of Mg++ plus ATP. It was further found that the degree of antibody inhibition in the presence of Mg++, ATP and K+ was affected by the sequence in which K+ and ATP were added to the enzyme prior to the addition of the antibodies.It is suggested that by antibody inhibition different conformations of the (Na+–K+)-ATPase could be detected. These conformations may possibly not occur in the solubilized enzyme and therefore do not seem to be necessarily linked to the intermediary steps of the ATP hydrolysis of the enzyme. The structural changes which are induced by Na+ and K+ in the presence of Mg++ plus ATP are proposed to occur during the Na+–K+ transport.  相似文献

Summary Ca++-ATPase activity (cf. Ando et al. 1981) was examined both light- and electron-microscopically in the neurohypophysis of the guinea pig. Apart from a strong activity within the walls of the blood vessels, in the parenchyma of the neurohypophysis the reaction product of the Ca++-ATPase activity was restricted to the plasmalemma of the pituicytes. This reaction was completely dependent upon Ca++ and the substrate, ATP; the reaction was inhibited by 0.1 mM quercetin, an inhibitor of Ca++-ATPase. A reduction of the enzyme activity occurred by 1) adding Mg++ to the standard incubation medium, and 2) substituting Ca++ with Mg++ at varing concentrations. In all experiments the neurosecretory fibers were devoid of Ca++-ATPase activity. The function of the Ca++-ATPase activity in the plasmalemma of the pituicytes is discussed in connection with the regulation of the extracellular Ca++ concentration, which seems to be important with respect to the discharge of secretory material from the neurosecretory fibers.Fellow of the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation, Bonn, Federal Republic of Germany.  相似文献

Purified rat epididymal nuclei possess a cyclic AMP-independent protein kinase activity that phosphorylates of casein. The enzymic activity was solubilized by treating intact nuclei with 1 M (NH4)2SO4. One major peak of kinase activity was obtained when the solubilized enzyme preparation was subjected to diethylaminoethyl-Sephadex chromatography. The activity of the kinase was dependent on a bivalent metal ion such as Mg2+, Co2+, Ca2+ or Mn2+. NaCl (0.3 M) caused a further activation (approx. 200%) of the metal (Co2+)-dependent enzyme. The apparentK m values of the enzyme for casein, ATP and Co2+ are approx. 0.6 mg/ml, 10 ΜM and 2.2 mM respectively. The enzyme was maximally active at pH 5.5. The enzyme showed high specificity for phosphorylation of the acidic protein casein but did not phosphorylate basic proteins, such as histones and protamine. The properties of the nuclear protein kinase were clearly different from those of the cytosolic enzymes previously characterized.  相似文献

Two new types of calcium channels were discovered during research in ionic currents in the somatic membrane ofHelix pomatia neurons, using an intracellular perfusion technique. Apart from the principal calcium current described in the literature with a holding potential of about –110 mV, an additional calcium current was observed activated at depolarizations of –40 to –80 mV and was not reduced when the cell was perfused with solutions containing fluoride anions. The kinetics of this current were well described in the context of the Hodgkin and Huxley model with a time constant of activation of 6–8 msec and of inactivation of 300–600 msec. It increased in amplitude as the Ca++ rose in the cellular environment but was reduced by extracellular addition of the Ca++ antagonists Co++, Ni++, and Cd++, and the organic blockers nifedipine and verapamil. The association constants of these substances with corresponding channels determined from the maximum of the current-voltage relationship were 2 (Ca++), 3 (Co++), 0.06 (nifedipine), and 0.2 mM (verapamil). The properties detected in this component of calcium conductance are compared with those of calcium channels in other excitatory formations and its possible functional role is discussed.A. A.

The effects of TEA, 4-AP, Co++, Cd++, Cs+, EDTA, and verapamil on the sensory epithelium of ampullae of Lorenzini were studied inRaja clavata (Black Sea skate). During voltage clamping, transepithelial application of TEA to the basal surface caused oscillations in transepithelial potentials in response to presentation of an excitatory stimulus, which had been suppressed by Co++, Cd++, and EDTA. Application of Cs+ was followed by complete or partial suppression of spike response adaptation. When applied to the apical epithelial surface, TEA produced an increase in spike response to stimulation and highly accelerated adaption. No substantial changes took place after apical application of Co++, Cd++, and verapamil. The mechanisms of these phenomena are discussed.Deceased.I. P.

Summary The histo- and cytochemical localization of Ca++-ATPase activity in the adenohypophysis of the guinea pig was studied utilizing a newly developed method (Ando et al. 1981). An intense reaction was observed in the wall of the blood vessels and between non-secretory cells (stellate cells) and endocrine cells of the pars distalis. Under the electron microscope the Ca++-ATPase reaction product was located extracellularly in relation to the plasmalemma of the stellate cells. This reaction was dependent on Ca++ and the substrate, ATP, and reduced by the addition of 0,1 mM quercetin to the standard incubation medium. Preheating of the sections before incubation completely inhibited the enzyme activity. When Mg++ in different concentrations were substituted for Ca++ in the incubation medium the reaction was always reduced. Both Ca++ and Mg++ in the incubation medium also reduced the reaction. The plasmalemma of the endocrine cells contains no demonstrable amount of Ca++-ATPase activity. The function of the Ca++-ATPase activity is discussed in relation to the regulation of the extracellular Ca++ concentration which seems to be important with respect not only to the secretory process of the endocrine cells but also to the metabolism of the adenohypophysis.  相似文献

Isolated cell walls of Clostridium botulinum type A strain 190L released an autolysin during autolysis of the cell walls. The autolysin was isolated from the cell walls, and partially purified 18.6-fold by ammonium sulfate precipitation, chromatography on DEAE-cellulose and gel filtration through Sephadex G-100. The purified preparation of the autolysin showed 2 major and 2 minor protein bands on Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Some properties of the autolysin were examined using SDS-treated cell walls of the organisms as a substrate. The autolysin was active over a pH range of 6 to 8, with a maximum near pH 6.8. The lytic activity was stimulated by 10?4 M each of Co++, Mg++ and Ca++ in the order, whereas it was inhibited markedly by Cu++. Mercaptoethanol (10?4–10?3 M) significantly activated the lytic action. Trypsin and nagarse (10 μg/ml) also stimulated the lytic activity. The lytic spectrum of the autolysin toward the SDS-treated cell walls obtained from various types of C. botulinum and C. perfringens indicated a relatively high specificity. After treatment with hot formamide the cell walls of C. botulinum increased in susceptibility to the autolysin.  相似文献
